Subject: drm/i915/ringbuffer: Exclude last 2 cachlines of ring on 845g

From: Chris Wilson <[email protected]>

commit 27c1cbd06a7620b354cbb363834f3bb8df4f410d upstream.

The 845g shares the errata with i830 whereby executing a command
within 2 cachelines of the end of the ringbuffer may cause a GPU hang.
